This shows the primary networks (sim 1)
& secondary networks (sim 2)
Dual sim is important feature for me also.

It's quad band on both radios, so it will work fine in Italy.
It costs around $915. Not a good price.

Thnaks guys
is there any section here dedicated about this phone, for custom rom and other mods?
I think that with the dual sim feature I can't flash the custom rom with omega and more, right?

No, you can't flash existing custom roms. Whether there will be dev support for this phone is what I can't tell. since its only to be sold in the chinese market, I doubt if it will receive as much community support as the international counterpart

Android question for China GNII
I'm also in the market to buy a dual SIM phone and am quite keen to buy the N7102. I heard however China Android phones have limitations to access Google services like Gmail, Google maps etc. I also heard there is no way to access the Google Play store to download apps. Can anyone verify this? I don't live in China so these limitations will keep me from buying this model. Thanks everyone.

Mochiware, your gonna use the phone outside China? No problem downloading those apps & using western internet access.
Yes, i want this phone also, I'm happy to have dual sim & DC HSPA+ & forget LTE for now
$890 is alot of money & its going to be cheaper than that for me to buy it, 3rd December release date onwards should see it reduce a bit hopefully.

Pat, can you provide more details about access Google Play, signing into Google accounts etc? I heard from a friend living in China that there are restrictions that prevent Google access. Do you mean outside of China these restrictions don't apply over wifi and/or 3G? I can live without LTE so long as I can use dual-SIM so both my work and personal numbers can be on the same device. I carry 2 mobiles now and that can be annoying sometimes. Thanks in advance.

I've been using dual sim adaptors for many years & can't imagine only having one sim but i would like to have calls & SMS coming in from both numbers as well.
Yes your Sims wont be Chinese will they so your network will give you the same access you get on any other 2g/3g phone you currently use.
If you think about it, the Chinese restrictions are going to be applied through the network/carrier otherwise nothing would stop them buying non Chinese handsets to avoid the blocks, it would be to easy.
Any apps missing on the software you can download. "Play store" is a downloadable app ...

I just got an n7102 tonight, and gonna root it tomorrow to get my google service back: p
BTW , you could not just install google play, you will get fc. You need to install googleserviceframework.apk as well.

Ok, thanks for correcting me, can i ask about where you bought & price?
i understood the 7102 to be available for delivery only from 3rd Dec.

Thanks guys let me know the questions I'm going to china next week I can ask to my friend and I will go in a store for test the phone
Thanks buddy let me know about root and many other info about the phone that u got it
Inviato dal mio GT-I9300 con Tapatalk 2

U should be able to flash the GAPPS to get all google services back from http://goo.im/gapps, once it's rooted and custom recovery installed. The 3rd Dec delivery is for some online retailers only, from what I heard its already available for sale domestically in China.

Hi there,
You mean i need root access for the phone to enable all western functions?
Isnt it the normal samsung UI?
I need german language, google play, gmail and maps.
If not working out of the box i better not spend this ammount...
Thanks for help!

It won't have the standard google apps out of box. The software is a modified version of android with pretty much all google service removed. There s no way using gmail google play maps or YouTube apps without root.
I can't verify this but I don't think it comes with German language UI either.

I just rooted my N7102, and reinstall back from my GSG3 backups. then removed all the default apps.
All work fine! Google account, google play, google map....etc.

thanks a lot for your prompt reply!
Will this beast then launch in Hongkong with full functions out of the box?
Got my Tab 7.7 there which works perfectly without flashing etc..
Thanks!

Hi buddy did you root the phone with odin and cf-root? did you install the cwm?

thanks
I will buy the phone in shanghai if somebody want receive info in real time install whatsapp and send me the phone number by PM, I will be in China from 5 dec to 14 dec.
Ivan

yes, I use the normal N7100 odin and cd-root to root N7102. It works fine! I didn't re-install CWM but recover from my backups.
and CWM shows that N7102 is not supported! So I uninstalled it.

It's not clear that will happen.
There s no indication this model will be released outside mainland China.

Help with Korean LG G4 😭 UPDATE: Solved :)

Just received my Korean LG G4, everything worked well except one issue and I have to fix.
Making a call is annoying for example when I need to place a call I have to remove the international code for example +97150******* will give me invalid number so I have to edit each number in my contact list by removing +971 and just start with 05********
One more thing my G4 always act like I'm in korea, weather app and the widget on the look screen there are 2 o'clock my country (UAE) and Korea.
Any solution for these problems?

Did you check Home dialing prefix is enabled or not? If enabled, then disable it.
BTW, where did you buy the phone from? Crazydeals? How much?

1. For the international code problem something looks wrong, what happens when u need to call abroad?
Are your numbers synced with Google contacts?
Try the suggested fix in the reply by skr
2. Did you try changing the settings to obtain clock data from network? Or set by u to fix the time issue?
If it's the weather app Switch GPS on and let it aquire ur location, that should fix weather and clock.

It says this phone is unlocked but for some reason it's stuck with korea like the weather app and widget clock. GPS is turned on and more over i did a full reset twice while my sim inside incase this will solve it but it still.
Rooting the phone wasn't my target so to keep it updated with LG but even the root is not out yet to change the buid.prop
It says
ro.product.locale.language=ko <--- will change it to en
ro.product.locale.region=KR <--- and this to US

Strange, my weather and everything is in English. I just changed the language to English in settings. I am in Korea so can't help with dialer problem.
Sent from my LG-F500S using XDA Free mobile app

The weather app is in English but it will not find my place by GPS unless I chose manually

Hi
Can you reply my PM? Thanks

Hmmm maybe try allow mock location under dev options? Just an idea

Will do

UPDATE !!
Ok guys here is interesting update.
since any missed call that I received in my country should appears with the country code like this: +97150*******
so I decided to try something different, I tried to dial 0097150******* and it works !!!
that's interesting, anyone can find where is the problem? Looks like somthing inside the phone will not allow any outgoing call if started with +

Good news
Good news ... Solved the outcall issue, now I can call any number.
Under the Sitting --> Call --> International access number
I did the following change ( see the pic attached)
Just sharing this info in case anyone faced slimier issue

Hi.
I've had much the same problem from Ireland. The last reply I've had from LG was that if your country is not listed....tough (paraphrasing) and they gave me a link to an Irish Smart World site that seems to be useful for smart tv's etc but no use for the smartphone!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/help/lg-smart-world-themes-h815-t3139629
The above link had some discussion on this, don't know if you've seen it or not but hope it's of some help.
Cheers.
Eoin.

Weird location related issues with Google play apps

Hello. I have a weird problem. Nowadays I live in Poland and wanted to install some apps, like zalando or olx.pl from Google play market. Sadly, I couldn't do this, coz it said, that it's not allowed in my country. I don't really know, why I get such a message? It's rom fault or maybe something else? Plz help, if there is a fix for it (yes, I know I can install it from anywhere else, but I want it from Google play). ROM Freedom OS, OP3 3003.

Those apps are not available in your country nothing you can do really :crying:

But they are for Poland and I live in Poland, WTF? All my friends have those apps.

Maybe it has something to do with your google account - when you have register for it - what country you were in? I remember somebody was having similar problem.

LG V30+ Oreo Rom

My Korean LG V30+ has just received and updated Android 8.0 Oreo , after I registered the testing event with Korean account.
I feel it smoother and better in the battery management.
I will try to check and give the comment later.

Thank you!
That's two pieces of good news today. European H930 being added to the bootloader unlock list and now Oreo rolling out.

That's awesome.
I tried a lot of stuff to get this to work without success...
Would you mind doing some sharing on how you did that?
(The signup proccess I am aware of, the quick help, the banner etc etc.)
But I get "not available in your country"... I have tried with VPNs etc without success.
(I have the South Korean version of the phone, even though I am based in sweden)
So I guess you've done something with your LG account or setup another account?

Please try to use OpenVPN connect as the image attached.
You must changed the region first, turnoff the LTE/ mobile signal, only using Wifi to register account or use LG account that you had → change to Korea, join event and accept the conditions (Using Google translator on another mobile for Korean). That's all.

Hm, might be stupid here. How do I load a profile like you did. Mine is completely empty.. Just the two links to supporting vpn services. I signed up on open VPN but can't find it.

Haiz. You must access the free VPN site as vpngate.net to get Korea VPN file. After that you add to OpenVPN connect.

How long did you have to wait after registering?
Guess it's fine to drop out of vpn and that after registration...
Keeping the Korean LG account logged in

About 02 weeks. Follow LG schedule they said that I need wait until the first of December. But as you know I've just gotten the update rom. I think they finish the test rom now and you will get it soon.

Can you extract the Oreo ROM from your V30 and share?

Android newbie here with V30+ imported from South Korea. How do you change your region? And how do you create a new LG account?
Thanks.

I'm glad for you guys!
